Welcome to Healthcare Magic..you need to be more specific regarding the site of the biopsy... Based on the report I can say that it is probably a cancer from glands (adenocarcinoma)... The papillary pattern can be found in cancers arising from the thyroid, ovary, breast, uterus and other organs... I would be happy to assist to if you can give me further details of symptoms and site of Biopsy
